Your comment made me think of littering. I see it all the time. I used to think of littering as laziness, but now I think there's something else going on, maybe something even more concerning. Perhaps apathy or disregard for one's fellow humans. When I was in college, the frat across from my dorm would regularly have huge parties that went late into the night. I remember one parents' weekend when I saw the dads out there partying with their sons. Of course the next morning there was a lawn full of empty beer cans. I saw the university janitorial staff picking up after these rich kids and their rich dads. One could say their littering was a lazy act, but I think it was something far more specific. These weren't people that most would call lazy -- another instance in which lazy is a term thrown at the poor more than at the rich. Most of the dads were probably lawyers, business executives, and doctors who likely worked 50+ hours a week. Their sons have probably followed in their footsteps. Their littering was a symptom of how they are accustomed to being served by those around them, how their actions don't always have consequences, and a lack of empathy.
